Cutter Grid (Continued)
To remove and check:
Before removing the grid, while the unit is operating,
feel the grid wires. They should feel warm to the touch.
1. Remove the thumb screws that are in front of the
cutter grid assembly.
2. Carefully pull the cutter grid out.
3. Unplug cutter grid from the units wiring harness.
4.
Visually check the wiring plug. It should be free of
mineral build-up. The plastic plug should not show
any sign of melting. (Excessive mineral build-up on
the plug terminals can cause the plug to overheat.)
5.
Visually check the grid wires. They should be taut
and free of mineral build-up. They should not have
black spots where the wires have sagged and
touched each other. If wires are bad, the entire cut-
ter grid should be replaced.
6.
Visually check the terminals, insulators and frame.
They should all be free of mineral build-up. The
insulators should not show any signs of melting.
If the terminals, insulators or frame are bad, the
entire cutter grid should be replaced.
Bin Light
If present, the bin light will be located on the cutter grid
assembly.
To replace the light bulb it is necessary to remove the
cutter grid assembly and the plastic light shield.
Water Reservoir Pan
The reservoir pan is a plastic tub with a drain hole and
an overflow boss to which a drain tube is mounted.
The pan is located under the evaporator toward the rear
of the inside of bin.
To remove
1. Though not necessary, it is recommended that the
bin door be removed for easier access.
2. Remove thumbscrews at the top of reservoir pan.
3.
Pull out the reservoir pan and check for mineral
build-up, slime or mildew.
A water inlet tube runs into the reservoir pan from the
water inlet valve in the unit compartment. The tube
must be secured in notch on the water pump bracket.
A plastic drain tube runs from the overflow boss, or
standpipe, on the reservoir pan down through bin drain.
